Rails Camp August 14, 2008

Imagine yourself and a posse of like-minded ruby hackers on a country retreat with zero internet for a weekend of fun. You'll laugh, hack, learn, cry (well, you probably won’t cry… but you know… it felt poetic) and most likely play a crap-load of guitar hero.
Upcoming Event: London, UK, August 2008

When

Starts the night of Friday August 15th 2008 for 3 nights and 3 days finishing midday Monday. Rocking up for just a day is cool too.
Where

Just outside of London, at the Downe Scout Activity Centre, near Orpington, Kent.
